Directions
Chocolate Cake Mix Cheesecake, This is an ultra rich, creamy, and delectable cheesecake! The flavor of the cheesecake improves the longer it is refrigerated It actually tastes better served 1 to 2 days later as the crust softens It keeps up to one week, so it is great to make ahead for special occasions It can also be frozen with a covering of foil , Very chocolatey! I made this 2 days in advance of bringing to a pot luck It was delicious Excellent directions Suggestions for next time: It was difficult to remove the pieces from the pan I would try spraying the pan with non-stick spray, lining it with foil, leaving enough of an overhang on each side to create handles, then spraying the foil with non-stick spray After refrigerating, pull the cheesecake out of the pan by the foil handles and cut into pieces Topping each piece with whipped cream would be wonderful
